On Wednesday, the athletic apparel manufacturer announced that CEO PatrikFrisk would be leaving following two years. He will leave effective June 1. Frisk will continue as interim CEO, and Colin Browne is the Chief Operating Officer. 

Frisk joined Under Armour, (NYSE:), in 2017, and was promoted to CEO in January 2020. While he will continue to serve as an advisor for the company until September 1, he is expected to oversee a turnaround. Under Armour suffered a net loss due to supply chain problems. This led to analysts cutting their price targets.
